| Abstract |
The article reviews the up-to-date concepts of an ambiguous status of the widely spread, bloom-forming, potentially toxic mixotrophic dinoflagellates Prorocentrum cordatum in marine planktonic food webs, with special emphasis on the ecological prerequisites of their proliferation and possible scenarios underlying the development of harmful algal blooms and their top-down control in marine coastal waters. |
